Quote from Victor :
This server move should take place (by the end of) next week if all goes as planned (hardly ever does though).

So, this month the shop should definitely open. I hope you can wait a bit longer The shirts won't run away

Take your time, don't be pressured. Good planning always has good results.

A few things I have noticed in my 16 month of playing Live For Speed:

*WARNING!* generalizations, personal opinions and stereotypes will be used! If you are offended by this,...well, tough!

-The blue flag spammers, from my observations, are for the most part, people whom have never driven a vehicle in the real world, much less a vehicle on the race track. IRL, a racer doesnt hit some key bind to move another out of the way, it is mutual respect with both players. If you want someone to move, fill up their mirrors; that usually gets the point across. If you have a shred of talent, you can exploit a persons weakness so you can pass. You dont have to nerf or push to get results. Also, berate the ignorant backmarker AFTER the race, OK? I get fed up with flooding, and I am sure others do, too!

-In regards to hotlappers on the track with others. Some time ago, I was on a server with a known hotlapper, and that person was the most rudest, vile, pushy racer I have encountered. I have seen wreckers with more class! Sure, that person won, with the fastest time, but after watching the replay, it was when the field was clear, most of the time the person was getting ahead by bumping people out of the way. Fast racers should win and excel with merit, fair play and strategy, and lead by example, not by being a bully, which is what I sometimes see played out on countless servers.

-Sam, you are right...there are some really great,fast people online. They lead by example, and are greeted with hellos and polite driving from other racers. They do their race, leave the juvenile drama out of it, and as a result, everyone has a great time.

For everyone, just remember this: it only take a drop of love to ruin a big old vat of hate. On the other hand, it take only one rotten BANana to ruin the bunch. Dont be a rotten banana.

Question, and answer honestly.

How many teams, since November of 2006, have you been involved in, or started? Do you ever just stick with one thing?

I remember the original video, because of Google video it is too pixelated, but the girl who was in the 3000GT (GTO) pissed her pants.

20,000 miles on a DFP and it still works great. It will have to die before I go G25.

Quote from 11SuLLy11 :ahh why don't people buy the STI instead

Ahhh how about you send me the additional $7000 USD to pay for it! Also an additional 22% extra for insurance. Plus, you can send an additional $250 USD a month for my chiropractor visits, as the STi ride is very harsh on my back, which is bad to begin with, and now I am getting arthritis in it, too!

I know, I am taking the piss out on you. To me, the STi is just too much for me.

Quote from Ball Bearing Turbo :Right then,

So when you're showering... Do you go out of your way to manually soap up your legs with direct soap -> leg contact, or rather do you rely on the flow of soapy water over your legs to do the job?

Being in a hurry most of the time, I noted the other day that I tend to let everything below the.... important area.... get neglected in terms of "hard contact" with the soap bar etc. Of course, I don't work in the dirt or anything and would obviously modify my routine when necessary.

Recently, I only rated you 7% more sexier than Dawedust12, but after this thread, yes, you now get that extra 0.


Right.

We all know that you can get low FPS because of overheating, but how many here open their computer case every month and either blow out the dust or vacuum? By doing that, my temps usually drop 3-4 Celsius.

I dunno on that. BBT seems about 7% more sexier.

"Thank you for serving your country". Stay safe.

I assume Ash body and a maple neck?

Then I realized...I have been playing guitar for longer that you have been alive...18 years. Wow. Nice to see see someone build a guitar, you really have an appreciation when finished.

Some of my guitars...I mostly like Deans, but not the flying V's. My playing style is Jazz and I guess you would say Rush.

Quote from BlackSheep720 :Victor said in his interview that

"At the moment I'm into another amazing game, it's a simulation game that lets me control a racing sim community..."

What game do you think he's talking about?

Edit: I forgot the word community. But I still can't get it lol.

Thanks for now making us North Americans look like twits. or uh, twts, really.

Quote from Boris Lozac :I didn't mean to offend you or anything, and you have better computer than i do anyway
It sounded like you don't wan't LFS to progress graphically, or in number of players on server, because many people can't handle it..
That means we should never get parts falling off, glass getting broken, better sounds, more detailed car models, detailed cockpits, etc??
People have to upgrade their computers SOME DAY, you can't expect that you can play 2007 PC game with Pentium 2, now, can you?
I haven't updated my PC in 3 years now, used to do it all the time for stupid FPS games, which bore me after a week...

No offense taken! 28 players is good, 32 is better, and if anything, more entertaining in T1, but if there is a jump from 28 to 32 players in a short time, it may be too much graphically for alot (but not all!) players. I am all for improvements as you mentioned, but it just seems not like something Scawen or Scavier in general would do. W17 seems to me, to be a "throw it into the water and see if it floats" kind of patch.

If I am wrong, may I dine on crow.

Quote from Boris Lozac :I don't think that would be the case (i hope not)..
I mean, i understand that some of you have really low end PC's, but the development can't be held back because of you guys
As someone already said, no one is forcing you to go to 32 players server..
You could really shell out for a new graphics card at least..

You tell me. By the way, my card is a Radeon 9600.


Edit: and I dont give two stone if I can handle 32 cars...I know I can, but how about a large group of people who DONT read this forum? IIRC, Live For Speed's finest point is that you dont need a gamer computer to play.

I am going to make a prediction; I predict that the final, compatible patch will allow 24-28 cars on the grid, not 32. I am in the belief that Scawen would like feedback to see just how far this game can be pushed, then scale it back to a level for people with normal computers can use.

It seems logical and, I dunno, Scawenish.

I laughed for a while when he responded about a game he likes rather than LFS:
